Client Director in London

About Channel 3

At Channel 3, we are united by a clear sense of purpose: we exist to help the health and care sectors improve lives by using digital and data. We believe the model of health and care needs to transform to deliver the expectations of citizens and policymakers, with a focus on providing much more proactive and preventative care, closer to home. We help our clients use technology to transform patient care, provide better experiences for the public and improve conditions for the workforce.

This is an incredibly exciting time for us at Channel 3 as we seek to scale our impact and reach as a business and there is no doubt that our continued success will be underpinned by the exceptional talent and passion of our people. We work hard to create an environment where everyone feels supported to learn, develop and have fun! We care deeply about making a difference and building a team of people who are passionate about driving meaningful change. We offer colleagues the freedom to play an active role in their own personal development and the opportunity to help shape our wider business and how we deliver our work.

The Context

The digital ecosystem within both private and public healthcare continues to evolve, driven by new technologies aimed at boosting productivity, enhancing workforce experiences, and improving patient outcomes. However, this ecosystem is often fragmented, with innovations remaining siloed and disconnected. As a cross‐industry technology consulting partner, our mission is clear: we don’t just help healthcare organisations adopt new technologies; we ensure these solutions are tailored to real‐world needs, seamlessly integrated into existing infrastructures and workflows, and continuously evaluated for impact and benefits—both before deployment and throughout their operational lifecycle.

On the latter, we believe that data should be at the core of decision‐making, whether it’s guiding market demand signals or driving clinical initiatives to promote anticipatory care and prevention. Channel 3 has significant track record in supporting the implementation and integration of large‐scale clinical systems with and for providers and local health and care systems. This includes Electronic Patient Records, Shared Care Records, Patient Engagement Portals and many more. However, we are aware that the implementation of such systems is only the beginning of the transformation journey and many trusts have struggled to realise the benefits identified in their initial business cases for new systems due to competing priorities and capacity constraints.

Whilst we see huge opportunities in continuing to support providers and local systems in adopting and implementing new technologies, our ambition is to expand our presence and impact at a local level by supporting the optimisation of existing and new systems and working across health and care settings to enable them to truly transform the way care and support is delivered. A cornerstone of the 10 Year Plan is the need to continue to improve productivity across the health and care ecosystem as well as enable a shift in the way health and care is delivered out of acute settings and into the community. We see the power of technology as critical in enabling these new models of care to be delivered, at scale.

The Role

As Channel 3 continues to grow, and deliver on the ambition set out above, we are now seeking a Client Director to join our health team, bringing with them extensive experience of shaping and delivering transformation and technology‐enabled change, and a track record of selling and leading consulting services within the UK Health sector, with a particular focus on clinical systems.

The Client Director will be a senior leader within Channel 3, and key member of our Health Leadership Team, shaping and driving sector business growth and delivery excellence with our clients. The desired candidate will have specific expertise in the deployment and optimisation of clinical systems and other digital solutions whilst maintaining a focus on how these are deployed to demonstrably improve patient outcomes, improve clinical productivity and leadership priorities.
